Whilst research on climatic effects on fungal populations and communities (particularly of soil and litter-specialised species) has been done extensively, empirical examples of the impacts of climate change on airborne fungi are still lacking. Using a hot-air balloon to sample fungal spores during the winters of 2022 and 2023, here, we show the effects of warmer winter temperatures on airborne fun
The increasing threat of soil degradation presents significant challenges to soil health, especially within agroecosystems that are vital for food security, climate regulation, and economic stability. This growing concern arises from intricate interactions between land use practices and climatic conditions, which, if not addressed, could jeopardize sustainable development and environmental resilie
Leaf area index is an important metric for characterising the structure of vegetation canopies and scaling up leaf and plant processes to assess their influence on regional and global climate. Earth observation estimates of leaf area index have increased in recent decades, providing a valuable resource for monitoring vegetation changes and evaluating their representation in land surface and earth
The extent to which different magnitudes and directions of temperature fluctuations explain long-term trends in aquatic invertebrate body size is largely unknown. Using elevational gradients and paleolimnological reconstructions, we tested the hypotheses that the size of subfossil chironomid (non-biting midges) head capsules (HCs) will covary with temperature changes, with opposite morphometric ch
What are the main challenges for fossil-free agriculture and food systems, according to Swedish farmers? And what do farmers think fossil-free farms should look like, and how should they function? What actions are needed from different actors to achieve these visions by 2050? These questions were discussed during a lunch-to-lunch workshop in Eskilstuna, 13-14 November 2025. The purpose of the work
Att förstå komplexa och skiftande institutionella ramar har länge varit en viktig fråga inom socialvetenskaplig forskning. Nu mer än någonsin tidigare aktualiseras detta av den nya socialtjänstlagen som betonar tidiga socialarbetarinsatser som sker på frivillig basis och med förtroende som grund, medan andra delar av socialt arbete präglas av kontroll och disciplin. I ”Take Away-studien” har vi fö

People form part of the biosphere - the biosphere being the whole intertwined network of life on Earth. While there is convergence on the need for societal change for just sustainability and a healthy biosphere, the pathways to achieve these transformations remain relatively unclear. Through legal interpretation, conceptual and thematic analysis of academic and grey literature, we seek to answer t
During land model development, simulated carbon dynamics are often benchmarked against observational data sets to evaluate model performance. Functional relationship benchmarks are the relationship between a driving variable (e.g., temperature) and a response variable (e.g., ecosystem respiration) and are a promising tool for assessing model performance by evaluating modeled sensitivities to chang
Large-scale stratiform clouds are widespread and dominate the Earth's radiation budget. Their radiative and microphysical properties are inseparable, depending on ambient aerosol conditions and on properties of any convective outflow. In the Community Atmospheric Model, version 6 (CAM6), large-scale clouds were originally treated two decades ago with a two-moment bulk microphysics approach. Since
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det görs en rad försök till demokratisk förnyelse ute i kommunerna. I denna avhandling är det min ambition att analysera ett sådant försök; medborgarutskotten i Helsingborg. De frågeställningar avhandlingen behandlar är 1) vad ligger bakom samtalets betoning i medborgarutskottens deltagardemokratiska aktiviteter? 2) Hur positioneras kommuninvånare som medborgare då medThis is a study of civic communication in a municipal setting. In the south Swedish municipality of Helsingborg operated Civic Committees between 2003 and 2006. The Civic Committees organized different kinds of activities together with the citizens out in the different neighbourhoods of the municipality, such as open meetings, neighbourhood walks, workshops for the future and meetings with specifi
The aim of this paper is to discuss the unexploited forces of user-orientation and shared responsibility to promote sustainable value co-creation during service innovation projects in welfare service ecosystems. The framework is based on the theoretical field of public service logic (PSL) and our thesis is that service innovation seriously requires a user-oriented approach, and that such an approa
Background: The 2030 agenda for sustainable development calls upon all nations to make critical investments in their health systems to deliver universal access to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR). Capacity development is listed among the strategies for achieving sustainable development goals. Although capacity development has been a major component of international development for
Dynamic global vegetation models are a common tool to assess the effect of climate and land use change on vegetation. Though most applications of dynamic global vegetation models use plant functional types, some also simulate species occurrences. While the current development aims to include more processes, e.g. the nitrogen cycle, the models still typically assume an ample seed supply allowing al
This study conducted the global sensitivity analysis of the APSIM-Oryza rice growth model under eight climate conditions and two CO2 levels using the extended Fourier Amplitude Sensitivity Test method. Two output variables (i.e. total aboveground dry matter WAGT and dry weight of storage organs WSO) and twenty parameters were analyzed. The ±30% and ±50% perturbations of base values were used as th
In this study, the processes behind observed new particle formation (NPF) events and subsequent organic-dominated particle growth at the Pallas Atmosphere-Ecosystem Supersite in Northern Finland are explored with the one-dimensional column trajectory model ADCHEM. The modeled sub-micron particle mass is up to ∼75 % composed of SOA formed from highly oxidized multifunctional organic molecules (HOMs
Ultrafast time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy has been used to investigate the excited-state dynamics of the basic eumelanin building block 5,6-dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA), its acetylated, methylated, and carboxylic ester derivatives, and two oligomers, a dimer and a trimer in the O-acetylated forms. The results show that (1) excited-state decays are faster for the trimer relativ
Relentless CMOS scaling coupled with lower design tolerances is making ICs increasingly susceptible to wear-out related permanent faults and transient faults, necessitating on-chip fault tolerance in future chip microprocessors (CMPs). In this paper we introduce a new energy-efficient fault-tolerant CMP architecture known as Redundant Execution using Critical Value Forwarding (RECVF). RECVF is bas
